NMNAT2 - nicotinamide nucleotide adenylyltransferase 2 Gene
Also Known as PNAT2; C1orf15
Species: Homo sapiens
About NMNAT2
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 212 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 32.6), heart (RPKM 7.5) and 5 other tissues.
Summary
This gene product belongs to the nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase (NMNAT) enzyme family, members of which catalyze an essential step in NAD (NADP) biosynthetic pathway. Unlike the Other human family member, which is localized to the nucleus, and is ubiquitously expressed; this enzyme is cytoplasmic, and is predominantly expressed in the brain. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
